Their study has revealed some interesting observations like Facebook is most popular in Turkey and Canada, Friendster and Imeem are most popular in the Philippines, Twitter is most popular in Japan, Orkut is more popular in Iran than it is in the United States and LinkedIn is most popular in India!

I thought it was Orkut !
This is absolute crap.orkut is way ahead of linkedin.Many in india don’t even know what linkedin is.
Google insights is a fairly good indicator, but I suppose it depends on how strong Google’s position is in the Indian market.
